内容摘要: 本研究的目的是确定文化适应、民族认同和宗教信仰对阿拉伯和中东血统人的歧视知觉的影响。本文用最后的包含177个阿拉伯或中东血统人的样本测量了文化适应的两个方面(民族社会融入和主流社会融入)、宗教信仰和民族认同。结果表明,报告了较低程度主流社会融入的阿拉伯/中东的美国人倾向于报告受到更高程度的歧视。此外,穆斯林比基督徒报告受到更高程度的歧视,但这一结果被文化适应的水平所缓解。特别是,报告了高水平的主流社会融入的穆斯林经历了最多的歧视,而报告了高水平的主流社会融入基督徒报告较少的歧视。本文还讨论了研究的意义。
Abstract: The aim of the current study was to determine the impact of acculturation, ethnic identity, and religious affiliation on perceived discrimination for persons of Arab and Middle Eastern descent. Two aspects of acculturation (ethnic society immersion and dominant society immersion), religious affiliation, and ethnic identity were measured using a final sample of 177 individuals of Arab or Middle Eastern descent. Results indicated that Arab/Middle Eastern Americans who reported lower levels of dominant society immersion tended to report higher levels of discrimination. Furthermore, Muslims reported a higher level of discrimination than Christians but this finding was moderated by level of acculturation. Specifically, Muslims who reported a high level of dominant society immersion experienced the most discrimination, whereas Christians who reported a high level of dominant society immersion reported less discrimination. Study implications are discussed.
